I don't feel great about this situation.
Annan were fantastic hosts to us when we won the Third Division Championship there.
I was the chairman of Gordon Lennon's Benefit fund which raised in excess of £23,000 for Gordon's family. The Annan players had a pre-season tournament which they won. They pooled and donated their bonus money which amounted to £500. In an extremely generous gesture Henry McClelland and his board at Annan matched the players efforts and sent a cheque for £1,000.
They are a good and generous club and I sincerely hope that everything is above board in relation to Josh Todd.
I agree with most of what you're saying, Wilf.
They gave us a fantastic welcome that memorable day.
But I suspect that this is nothing more than sour grapes from one or two fans, and as S08 says, Chapman overvaluing him.

He's signed as an amateur. There's nae tribunal to be had.
Nice to see you're taking it well.That was my point too.
If he's arrived as an Amateur, I don't know why we'd need to pay anything, tightfisted or not.

Will wear it with pride. I was the only one from our crowd in attendance on Saturday.
See you soonThat was good of you to turn up. I steadfastly refuse to go and watch friendliest, as I view yet hem as nothing more than a training exercise for which you get mugged for a tenner

Went to get my top and 3/4 zipper from ttl. Finding the place was as difficult as trying on a xxl top. Sure we will see some sights at the Rock when they get delivered.
Cracking top and zipper good quality but Nade would have been xxxxxl in the top.Aye, and you being an XXXXXXXXXXXXXL means they'll have to order them specially for you.

I was thinking more like Randall and Hopkirk. You can make your own mind up about who is who
Rangers must be Hopkirk.
The door sign said Randall and Hopkirk(Deceased).

Good news that sons are taking the LC seriously....stevie wants to get thru to round 3
I should bloody well hope so - a manager should take every game seriously.
The only exception in our case should be when we're mathematically safe in the league.

Finished 2-1 to Stranraer tonight, decent even game and some good performances before the subs arrived and Stranraer started to dominate.
I'll post some more (if P&B can survive) later on.
The curse of Stranraer strikes again!

The walk up crowd is a small part of our overall gate so shouldn't have a particularly big impact on crowd numbers. The biggest issue with this for me is convenience. Having to pick up tickets is annoying when I've got a wee book in my wallet that does me perfectly well for every other home game.
On a similar note - anybody received their season books yet?
Not yet.

Trust me you will find out, i think he will be one of those players that will drift down the leagues and ultimately junior.
I'm pretty sure that's the eventual career path of many a footballer over the years.

Oh, that's a relief.Nah, aye the rock, total knob
I don't eat pies at the games very often. They tend to soak up the drink I've had.

He'll spend it on pies
Who? Me?

That'll be two of us, then.miserable git that you are
What I don't spend on friendlies, I'll spend in the club shop.
Really fancy a new mug, new top, a new pair of Sons' gloves, Sons welly boots and a copy of 'The Sons we're the ones" CD.

What does everyone think of the pre season entry prices?
£10 to watch a non-competitive, glorified training session?
Sorry, but no thanks, not for me. I'll see the new guys when the season starts properly.

They're in the Championship, so they're a Championship club.Hibs is an interesting one, most people rightly regard them as a top flight club but if they fail again to get promoted, how long until they're seen as a championship club?
Rangers are in the top flight, so they are a top flight club.
It's not a difficult concept.
How long you've been in a particular league shouldn't be a measure of what kind of club you are.

I'm pretty certain the QC is banned.Say hi from me stoney, Norms not been posting very much recently.

Did the decrease in Season Ticket Holders not coincide with a sizeable hike in the cost of the ticket? I seem to recall a big jump two or three years ago.
i doubt if they'd return imediately. Unless we're at the playoffs stage. Quite a few glory hunters turned up vs Airdrie in the year we won the playoffs.
Plus, they're all out playing games with their mobiles just now, chasing Pokemons. Much more fun than supporting the best part time team in Scotland, I guess.
400+ is still a good number of S/Tickets sold.
